I going to qualify my comments that they reflect only the current
information I've come across, good or bad. I find the evidence
compelling that cocoa has many health benefits and that it is closely
related to a common tree found in Africa and used extensively there,
that while some animals find the product unhealthy, man processes it's
ingredients easily, as if well adapted to it.
But lets say I'm wrong, what then? I've found the following questions
valuable.
If I'm wrong on (issue X), what's the worst that can happen?
If I'm right on (issue X), what's the best that can happen?
At this point for me, the best that can happen far outweighs the worst
that can happen.
